Welcome to Five by Friday!<\/strong><\/p>\n

This weekend marks a special day in the Harry Potter fandom for two reasons: July 31 will be Harry’s 36th birthday, and it is also the release date for Harry Potter and the Cursed Child<\/em><\/a>, J.K. Rowling’s dramatic follow-up to her beloved\u00a0Harry Potter\u00a0<\/em>series. To mark this totally awesome<\/a> occasion, we’ve decided to use this week’s Five by Friday to highlight some of our favorite Harry Potter headcanons<\/a> — fandom theories which\u00a0are not explicitly verified in the text, but which we believe to be true.<\/p>\n

Since all three of us tend to love the same theories, instead of doing individual lists this week, we’ve just compiled our top five overall headcanons.<\/p>\n

Oh, and in case it needs to be said: spoilers abound.<\/p>\n
